    Royce who?
  2. stringer bell
    Tough lineup on the other side. Ryan looks really good, but they got a run and they're a big swing away from being right back in this game.
  3. stringer bell
    I saw that too.
  4. stringer bell
    No break. He’s listed as day-to-day.
  5. stringer bell
    Nope.
  6. stringer bell
    Yikes! I hope Miranda is okay.
  7. stringer bell
    I think Correa has more infield hits this year than he had in the last two years.
  8. stringer bell
    I expect they will just DFA Weiss and try to get him on the St. Paul roster.
  9. stringer bell
    No 40-man spots available and soon spots will (may) be needed for Stewart and Topa. Henriquez can’t be recalled unless someone goes on IL.
  10. stringer bell
    Yes (to both).
  11. stringer bell
    A 1.000 BABiP inning.

    Go Pablo! I found the head-to-head stats quite interesting. The Twins have scored slightly more runs than Houston, but have a near-identical OPS. The Twins have allowed more runs than Houston despite having better walk and strikeout numbers. The Twins' staff has a lower OPS against and opponents BA and a lower WHIP. The one pitching area where Houston is significantly better is home runs allowed, yet Houston has allowed about a third of a run per game less than the Twins.

    Varland pitched yesterday (poorly) for the Saints. Boushley pitched on Wednesday, also poorly. Of the on-roster guys, that leaves only Winder would be able to be recalled AFAIK.

    Festa’s pedigree is much more similar to Bailey Ober, a middle range draft choice coming out of college. His increased velo and success in the minors moved him up and got him ranked among top prospects. The success of developing Ober and Ryan have been huge in putting together the rotation and maintaining the quality of the staff. (I honestly don’t know how much credit the Twins should get for Ryan’s success—it could be shared with the Rays and with Ryan himself). If Festa can have similar success as those two, then the Twins have another feather in their cap. Limiting walks isn’t the same as command. Festa put too many balls in good hitting spots and paid the price. The stuff looked okay to me, but far from dominant.

    Injuries and ineffectiveness will probably make the decisions for the left handed corner outfielders and first base. Probably the same for the infield. I really don't know if the Twins can count of Lewis given his all-too-frequent injuries. While his post-ACL injuries haven't come from playing in the field, I wonder what they will do to limit his injuries or the risk of them.

    On July 4, 2023, what would the projections have looked like for today? In the long slog that is a major league season, there are ebbs and flows. José Miranda has come back from being irrelevant to a near All-Star. Larnach has seen his stock fall and then rise. A year ago, Kirilloff was a couple weeks away from being Player of the Week. Wallner and Julien were key starters down the stretch and in postseason and now are in the minors. There aren't many sure things.

    And he's back on a minor league contract. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/07/twins-sign-matt-bowman-to-minor-league-deal.html

    I couldn't remember Pineda and Pérez piggybacking, so I checked the game logs. Pérez relieved Pineda in Big Mike's first start of 2019 and not ever again for the entire year. Maybe you are remembering someone else relieving Pineda and maybe it wasn't in 2019, but that was Pérez' only year with the Twins.

    I think there’s a good chance that Maeda is taken out of Detroit’s rotation and a greater than zero chance they let him go. I thought the Twins should try to keep him, but he might be cooked.
  20. stringer bell
    Winnah!!
  21. stringer bell
    Nope, the stats count. It’s only if the lead changes without the home team getting their chance to take the lead that the results don’t count.
  22. stringer bell
    I’m glad nobody got hurt.
  23. stringer bell
    Perk was right about Maeda Ks. Sitting on 999.
  24. stringer bell
    Official game!!!
  25. stringer bell
    Feels like the top of the ninth. That's one.
